PHARMExcel’s CEO returns to speak at Clinical Outsourcing Group Conference 2024

PHARMExcel’s CEO, Yvanne Evener, will be speaking on an interactive panel at this year’s Clinical Outsourcing Group Conference UK, titled “Getting Less for More: Maximising the Value of Clinical Outsourcing in a Challenging Macroeconomic Environment”.

Following a decade of low inflation, low interest rates, we now find ourselves with high inflation, with high interest rates. This has meant that many trial sponsors have been faced with soaring costs whilst having reduced access to financial support. Yvanne and her colleagues will explore the measures trial sponsors can take to manage and reduce outsourcing costs, whilst maintaining quality. Exploring themes such as building in-house teams, contract negotiation, and international study locations.

Yvanne will be joined by panellists:

  • Suki Malhi – VP Clinical Operations, Supply & Data Management – Wave Life Sciences
  • Rachael McTegart – Outsourcing & Contracts Director – Barinthus Therapeutics
  • Nina Skorytchenko – CEO – Avenna
  • Caroline Jacobs – Lead Outsourcing Manager – Reckitt
